Area forecast discussion, Mar 19, 11:24 AM MDT, 3 hours 28 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Pueblo CO 1124 AM MDT Sun Mar 19 2023 .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 343 AM MDT Sun Mar 19 2023 Key messages: 1) Spotty near-critical fire weather conditions over the southeast corner of the state this afternoon. 2) Snow returns to the southwest mountains after midnight tonight. Currently...Snow is lingering across Wolf Creek Pass and the eastern San Juan Mts early this morning, otherwise skies are mostly clear for much of the forecast area. Temps as of 3 AM have dropped into the teens to around 20 degrees for most locations. Today...Weak upper ridge of high pressure currently over the desert southwest will shift to the east across the Four Corners, shifting the flow aloft to a more westerly direction and keeping much of the area dry. There may be isolated snow shower activity over the southwest mts, but noteworthy snow accumulation is not expected. Increasing west to southwest surface winds will help boost temps across the eastern plains, and spotty near-critical fire weather conditions are likely across Baca and Prowers counties. However, it should be only for a couple of hours during the afternoon so no highlights will be issued. Plan on high temps today in the 40s for the high valleys, and generally 50s across the plains. Tonight...As the upper ridge continues east out of the area tonight, another upper disturbance pushes onshore across the Pacific NW. The flow aloft shifts to the southwest and taps into available moisture to help produce increasing cloud cover and snow once again across western CO and along the Continental Divide. Mostly cloudy skies are anticipated for all of the higher terrain and high valleys by daybreak Monday morning, as well as 2 to 3 inches of new snow across the eastern San Juan Mts. Look for overnight low temps in the teens to lower 20s for the high valleys, and 20s across the plains. Moore .LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday) Issued at 343 AM MDT Sun Mar 19 2023 There is good agreement between the operational model guidance through Thursday, with difference from Friday through next weekend. Ensembles tend to support the Ecmwf and Canadian solutions, with the GFS the outlier at this time. Monday through Thursday...generally west to southwest flow is expected to prevail across southern Colorado through midweek, with multiple waves bringing rounds of snow to the Mountains, and windy conditions to the Plains. The first upper wave will pass across the region Monday through Monday night. Snow will spread over the Mountains Monday morning and continue through Monday night. The heaviest snowfall is expected over the San Juan Range given the southwesterly orographic flow. Decent snow will also fall over the remainder of the Mountains during this period. Westerly winds will lead to breezy conditions Monday afternoon, which will help temperatures warm into the mid 50s to lower 60s. The main wave will be passing to the north Monday night, and guidance is suggesting strong westerlies developing Monday night into Tuesday morning along the lee slopes of the Eastern Mountains. This will keep overnight lows in the 40s along the lee slopes, with 30s across the Plains. At this time, wind prone areas along the I-25 corridor will likely see gusts in the 30 to 40 mph range late Monday night into Tuesday morning. Periods of snow will continue over the Mountains through the day Tuesday. Snow does not look too heavy at this time for Tuesday, with a few inches possible along the Continental Divide. Breezy conditions will remain across the Plains. Enhanced mixing will allow temperatures to warm through the 60s. A few spotty areas of critical fire weather conditions may be possible along the I-25 corridor due to the gusty winds and humidity values near 15 percent. Winds will remain breezy across the Plains Tuesday night, which will help keep overnight lows mild in the 30s and 40s. The next upper wave will move across the region Wednesday into Thursday. This will bring another round of heavy snow to the Continental Divide, with the heaviest snow over the San Juan Range. This upper wave will lift northeast, from western Colorado into Wyoming. This will keep the Plains dry and windy. Winds will be strongest Wednesday afternoon, with gusts 40 to 50 mph over the Plains. Locally higher gusts may be possible. Again, near critical fire weather conditions will be possible along the I-25 corridor, with humidity values in the upper teens. Enhanced mixing will allow for temperatures to warm into the 70s. A cold front will drop south across the region Wednesday night with cooler temperatures for Thursday. Highs on the Plains will be in the 50s to near 60. There will be less wind as well. Snow looks to remain confined to the Mountains on Thursday, becoming lighter in nature as the upper system moves away from the area. As for snow totals, the San Juan Range will likely pick up another 1 to 4 feet of snow through Thursday. Higher amounts may be possible. The Central Mountains will also do well with 1 to 2 feet possible. The Sangre de Cristo will likely see up to a foot, with the highest totals expected south of La Veta Pass. These totals are subject to change as each individual wave impacts the area. Friday through Sunday...another upper storm system is forecast to move across the Rockies during this time period. There are big differences in the model solutions, with the ECMWF and Canadian bringing across an open wave, while the GFS closes off an upper low and slowly moves it across the region. The ECMWF and Canadian solutions keep snow confined to the Mountains, with periods of heavy snow for the Continental Divide. Ensembles tend to support an open wave. The outlier GFS wants to bring heavy snow to the Eastern Mountains and across the Plains over the weekend. The GFS set up would favor strong northeasterly upslope flow and much colder temperatures over the weekend. The Ecmwf and Canadian would keep more southwesterly flow across the region and warmer temperatures. For now, kept most precipitation over the Mountains, with low chances on the Plains. Also keep temperatures more mild, with 50s for Friday and Saturday, before a cold front cools highs into the 40s on Sunday. Mozley && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon) Issued at 1120 AM MDT Sun Mar 19 2023 Besides increasing high clouds over the region during this period, we should see VFR conditions at all 3 taf sites (KPUB, KALS and KCOS) during the next 24 hours. Winds should mainly be from a SW'erly component this afternoon with light diurnal flow tonight. Winds may be a bit gusty this afternoon. && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
